Robert Irvine Probably Lies About How Many Calories Are In His Dishes, Too
"I'm trying to move forward," says disgraced chef Robert Irvine, who lost his Food Network show Dinner: Impossible, where he used only 18th century tools to prepare meals, after he was exposed for lying on his resume, falsely claiming he worked with the British royals and was knighted. He also never opened those two planned Florida restaurants; perhaps because investors dropped out?
But the beefy foodie is keeping his chin up: "I've had thousands of e-mails supporting me." He should print them out, so they'll be more apt to comfort him as the tears dry on his pillow. [Us]

I ALWAYS THOUGHT HE WAS GOOFY - AWKWARD AND FUGGY..
POOR FELLA, ALL THOSE MUSCLES AND NO WORK!
"where he used only 18th century tools to prepare meals"
I've only seen a handful of episodes, but I believe the premise was that he would work with whatever was provided to him & the environment allowed. In one instance, he was working in a pioneer kitchen with only "18th century tools", but that was just the once. Other episodes I caught included scenarios like coooking for a cattle drive on the open prairie, a carribean feast on a small deserted island, a dining car aboard a train, as well as various hotels & banquet halls. Just sayin'.
